About Zincore Metals

Zincore was formed in 2006 when Southwestern Resources Corp. spun off its zinc projects to create a separately-listed company. Zincore’s Accha Zinc Oxide District (“AZOD”) Project is located near Cusco in the prolific Yauri-Andahuaylas copper belt of southern Peru. It benefits from excellent infrastructure given the prolific mining operations and developments in the nearby area. A 2013 Pre-Feasibility Study (“PFS”) demonstrated tremendous progress in moving the AZOD project towards becoming a zinc producing operation.
